Trump’s Downfall and Lessons for African Politicians !! By Monsuru Adeyemo .

” As fickle as public opinion, as unique as democracy, as dynamic as politics and as transient as power “.

Donald Trump’s fall is a lesson for African politicians, especially, those of Nigerian extraction who so much take delight in playing game of religious bigotry, racial chauvinism and political jingoism to perpetuate themselves in power .

Trump’s apologists should try to observe the political failure of their role model at global level, the outgoing POTUS. Yes, you petty politicians might brutally fail if you don’t change your ways. Human race is one irrespective of our colour or creed , region or religion, race or faith.

Oh my people of the world and descendants of Adam! Let’s prioritize humanity over bigotry. Let’s prioritize humanity over ethnicity. Abrahamism :Judaism, Christianity and Islam, is humanity, humanity is Abrahamism and we are all members of human race.

Either in democracy, monarchy or military rule, the occupiers of public offices have perpetually failed to realise the transient nature of power until it is dawned on them and they find themselves in the similar scenario of Donald Trump.

Yes, I am a learner but as a lover of wisdom and a student of knowledge who has displayed his socratic nature of seeking knowledge and asking questions from great minds , I have had many encounters with Jewish Rabis who are well versed in Torah and Talmud of Judaism, I have had interactions with Christian clerics who are well versed in the verses of bible and its exegesis and I have had engagements with Muslim scholars who so much understand Quran and its Tefsir in details and I have learnt a very simple truth: “Life is vanity….. Power is transient…. Nothing last forever except God”, so, let’s always tread with care and it shall be well with us all.

As Joe Biden ascends the throne of global leadership, we look forward to seeing a new world where all lives matters and where all members of human race have a common destiny- Internationalism .

Congratulations to the incoming POTUS, Joe Biden and we wish you itch- free tenure in office.
